Imo, once the bed shrank to the latest 4x6ish version (which is too small to sleep in for most guys, a definitely too small for a couple), the pass through ides kinda lost relevance. I always thought it’s main benefit would be to create a more van like space for camping. So in my brain, at this...
Since my 98 Ram 2500 (gas) with 200k miles had almost no value, I decided to turn it into a dump truck. As much as I love the CT, it hardly looks like she’s designed for hard labor, or even long distance towing for that matter. I imagine many of us will be keeping an old truck as a...
I would be super surprised if the production model has laminate skid plates, seems way costly. If so, I hope it’s kevlar, cause you know, the truck is supposed to be bulletproof(ish).
Yeeeeeesssss! I am hoping that front bumper panel shown on the bed at the event is for exactly that.
Also hoping that, based on where all the red stuff is in that picture, there’s steer and brake by wire.
I have been hoping for some time that the length and width would be 5x8(tailgate down)ish. I’m hoping build a simple camper that would also be able to be hauled around in a 5x8 utility trailer. I really want something as versatile as possible while remaining simple/minimalist.
24k will get you a pretty decent trailer perhaps. That’s good because you will have somewhere hang out in when you’re stopping at just about every supercharger on your trip.
From what we’ve seen from the other electric trucks, the towing range is half or less. And the other trucks rely way...
I don’t think it was ever about money, if that was the case he would’ve given usa/nato/ukraine more time to figure out how to pay for it or do without it.

There are plenty of options out there for external mounting. Maybe a hit on aero, but minimal I would think.
Every truck I’ve owned needed front end work over time. Never rear end work. This may change that. One of the greatest strengths of Tesla engineering is making things with FAR fewer parts. This breaks that mold entirely. And all to fix something that’s not really broken.
